The fiberglass body is mounted on an Art Morrison chassis, which incorporates tubular front A-arms, a four-link rear suspension system, adjustable coilovers, and power rack-and-pinion steering.

Additional enhancements include staggered-diameter Schott wheels, Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes, a TSP Velocity intake manifold, tubular headers, side-exit exhaust pipes, Vintage Air climate control, electric windows, a Lokar shifter, an Ididit steering column, a Billet Specialties steering wheel, Dakota Digital instrumentation, and an AM/FM radio modified for Bluetooth connectivity.
